Merab Dvalishvili Says Ilia Topuria Gets an Easy Fight Against Justin Gaethje

The former bantamweight champion scoffed at Gaethje vs. Paddy Pimblett’s “dirty boxing,” saying Topuria "is laughing now, [because] there’s no good technique." Dvalishvili added, “Ilia is a high-level boxer,” predicting an easier fight for Topuria after he returns from his break. Gaethje defeated Pimblett last Saturday to win the interim lightweight title and booked a fight with undisputed champion Topuria.
